Ben & Rob get sticky with Ridley Scott’s 1979 masterpiece ‘Alien’, starring Tom Skerritt, Sigourney Weaver, Veronica Cartwright, Harry Dean Stanton, John Hurt, Ian Holm, and Yaphet Kotto. When the overworked and underpaid crew of the USS Nostromo dock on a derelict planet, what they find on the surface might just be the deadliest organism in existence. Released to critical and commercial success, ‘Alien’ has incubated and matured into the defining sci-fi horror film of its century, setting a standard that has not been matched since.
